THE JUNTA ON CAPITOL HILL
NERVOUS AND SURELY DIS-
TRESSED.
IS
THE EDGE OF UNCERTAINTY.
There Is No More BritKHfttlocIo ami
They Are Not BoiiMtiiiK—Invew-
tlu'ittion Postponed.
Austin, Tex., Oct. 28.—(Staff Correspond-
ence.)—It la difficult to tell just what the
capital junta believes about the result of
the election. The chiefs are all out of
town, and for at least two days the de-
partments have been run by their lieuten-
ants. The News can say, however, that
there is no swaggering. Men who should
know the minds of the absentees, when
asked about it, shake their heads and de-
cline to express convictions except occa-
sionally to shut their eyes and venture "a
160,000 majority for the ticket, which will
lead the head of it 20,000 to 40,000." They
then open their eyes, smile at the absurd-
ity and say: "We shall know how It Is
after the election." There is no more
braggadocio. They are as anxious for after
the election as the Fort Worth gang was
to postpone investigation of the confederate
insult till after the election. They have
drawn another long breath of relief since
our grand jury has adjourned, postponing
Investigation of Alsbury's charges about
that sale of bonds to the school fund until
after the election. They will, however, not
feel absolutely safe until they find that
their election officers have met require-
ments by the size of the vote they cast
after the election. Should it go for the op-
position, how about "after the election?"
That is a most serious question. Will the
opposition be inquisitive? Do they really
believe the records should be investigated?
What do they suspect? They say they
want to see the books. Whose hooks?
There are sixty days after the election to
post everything and show clean records.
The unpleasant idea is that a new set, not
posted, may find little things they don't
understand In the record and magnify them
into sensational exposures, when, In fact,
there is nothing wrong. Evidently after the
election may find the official family as un
happy as they are now.
Then even If the Uinta is victorious the
legislature will have a sufficiently large op
posit I n representation to secure invest 1
gatlons suggested by the charges made in
the campaign. Let the election settle
everything Is what the junta desires. What
is required is to postpone inquiry on all
mooted points. The News can say th
Junta Is nervous and prays for after the
election.

Paul Vandei'voort on the Situation.
A Little Incident at Yoakum.
Hork at Rockdale.
Austin. Tex.. Oct. 28.—(Staff Correspond-
ence.)—It is given out here to-day that the
free silver gang will have a grand ratifica-
tion meeting at the confederate home In
this city Friday night and that the young
governor will be on hand to make the vet-
-rans a speech. It appears to me that this
will be adding insult to Injury. What can
this youhg swashbuckler say to these griz-
zled heroes who are about to cross the
Stygian waters that will be of Interest to
them, in view of the position he now oc-
cupies toward the cause to which they gave
the llower of their lives. WW' should he
intrude his presence on these old fellows
whom he has been Indirectly denouncing
from the stump? lie made a vicious as-
sault on General Buckner and the Con-
federacy, and the lost cause Is dearer to
their hearts than anything this side of im-
mortality, and that assault was gratuitous,
uncalled for and insulting. It was a base
libel on one of the bravest and most chiv-
alrous Kentuckians that ever trod a battle
field. Then why should these old veterans
want to see or listen to the twaddle of such
a man? Why should they be forced to tol-
erate such a thing? Why should they be
dragged into the slime of the present cam-
paign? They are not for Culberson and
never will be. He might talk his voice
to a whisper and could not impress a single
one of them. 1 insist that the young bravo
of the state house in times of peace should
have the good taste to let these old sol-
diers alone. Rather than for him to ln-
fiict his presence on them the gang should
tie him up until the election Is over.
Green to Republican*.
Dallas, Tex., Oct. 24.-To republicans gen
erally In Texas, who desire the success of
our party in the state, I would urge the
importance of their registering at the prop-
er registration office, else they will lose
their votes. I am sure there have been
many republicans In the past who have re
fralned from voting simply because they
doubted our having a fair count, besides
believing the state was hopelessly demo-
cratic anyway; while now I can assure the
republicans of Texas, and all who desire
honest money, protection to American In-
dustries and good government for the peo-
ple of all classcs. that the republican party
Is fully organized nd equipped for making
a most vigorous an 1 successful fight, there-
by securing, with proper support, if ren-
dered by our party friends, the electoral
votes of Texas for McKlnley and Hobart.
Every patriotic citizen owes it to his gov-
ernment to express his choice In the elec-
tion of our chief executive and other of-
ficials. I'nder the law of this state, every
one entitled to vote in cities operating un
der the At nrallan system, must register
his name at the proper registration office
on or before the evening of the 28th day
of October: hence, 1 would urge all my
party friends, and those In accord with us
in principle, to attend to this matter. I
im satisfied that the republican vote of
Texas will aggregate nearly, if not quite.
150.000, while the highest vote given, at
least or many years, was about 96,000. I
earnestly desire to poll this year the fullest
possible republican vote, and this year,
when the republican party has been thor-
oughly organized and is making a most
vigorous and earnest fight, every republi-
can owes It to his party and to his country
to register within the time allowed, and
give his influence toward republican sue
cess. I would urge upon you the import
ance of looking after the registration in
your city at once, and ascertaining whether
or not the registration at this time is equal
to the last national election, and It might
be well that you should call in your pre
cinet committeemen and have them make,
with the aid of party friends, a close can
vass of their respective precincts, urging
every republican voter to go at once ant.
register. As I understand, the registration
books will be closed next Wednesday night
the 28th Instant, hence the very great 1m
portance that immediate attention be given
to the suggestion offered In this letter.
The reports coming Into my office are
most encouraging, and if every republican
will only do his duty between this and the
close of the polls on the day of the elec
tion, 1 feel warranted in predicting for
Texas a grand and glorious republican vie
tory.
As soon as the registration books have
been closed, I wish you would write to me.
giving the total registration of voters In
your city, and also furnish me a statement
of preceding registration.

Chairman Executive Committee.
A Card.
Houston Post. Oct. 28.
The Galveston-Dallas News of yesterday
prints what purports to be an affidavit
from Marlon Williams of Austin, in which
he is alleged to have stated that I told him
recently at Dallas I had been asked to go
to Austin and offer to buy his support of
the democratic ticket through his paper
known as the Texas Pitchfork.
Upon first reading this document I was
disposed to be annoyed: upon reflection,
however. It caused a different feeling. The
whole thing is so absurd on its face as to
need no serious consideration.
Some days ago at Dallas, in company with
some half doz»m newspaper men, and oth-
ers. T met Mr. Williams. In a crowd of this
kind It is customary fer many things to be
said, among members of the craft, and I
remember that the boys "joshed" William:
pretty freely, he being the only populist
present. It is altogether probable that I
"ioined In the chorus." but I do not call t
mind any remark made, to him upon whi
he could reasonably base the statement at
tributed to him in this affidavit. Certainly
I never said anything, seriously, to war
rant the deduction he drew. No one ever
asked me to attempt to bribe Mr. Williams
nor anybody else, and if they had I should
not have undertaken the task. 1 am not in
that business. If I were, and had the "$100
wads" referred to by The News, 1 would
know better how to use them than In try
Ing to buy populist newspapers.

Fayette for Sound Money.
During the state sound money conference
held at Galveston last February Mr. Jona
than Lane of Fayette county took a prom
inent part. In the course of an address
made during that meeting Mr. Lane said
"If you follow the dictates of the Dudle
committee you can vote on but one of tw
pru» osltions which are submitted by the
Dudley committee. Dudley did wrong whe
he appointed free stiver timber on th
committee to substitute that removed by
the hand of God. He did not propose to
walk up and lick salt laid by the hands of
the Dudley committee. In Fayette county
a I roe silver man has no more show than
a feather would have in the infernal re
gions. The gentlemen on the majority re
pert are democrats, but they simply diffei
with us as to methods and results. Demo
crats have the right to express themselves
on all issues, but the Dudley eommltte
says vote for free silver or vote against I
and vote for offices, and that is all you
can vote for If you obey the Dudley com
mlttee."
to vote for McKlnley and Hobart. Dr. Pope
for congress and Kearby for governor.
In speaking of state Issues, Mr. Edwards
drew "attention to some of the inequalities
of taxation by showing the very marked
difference between the assessors' reports
of money on hand and the reports of na-
tional banks of money on deposit subject to
check. He showed quite plainly that by
this failure to properly assess this money
the state was losing nearly half a million
dollars annually. He also showed the In-
equalities in the taking of th-* scholastic
ce-nsus and the inequalities in the distribu-
tion of the school fund. He called this steal-
inn-. He showed that some counties ap-
peared to have four tim^s as many school
children as their poll taxes; one county,
Webb, had 16 to 1 From this it was slfpwn
that some counties withdrew from'the
hool fund four and even as high as six or
eight times as much as they paid in.
FranciHco at Yoakuiu.
Yoakum, DeWitt Co., Tex., Oct. 28 —Hon.
B. Francisco of Galveston, populist
nominee for state superintendent of public
instruction, delivered a political addn ss
at the city hall In Yoakum last night and
during his discourse said: "The slate school
fund Is not used for the benefit of the
schools, but for the benefit of siate banks
and bankers, the bankers getting from 10
to 15 per cent Interest on the funds and the
state not one cent."
Mr. Francisco stated that the uniform
ystem of text books for the schools is
wrong and that in a history class, for in-
stance. twenty different kinds of histories
could be used to better advantage than one
kind. He went on to state that the demo-
cratic party had been robbing the children
of the state for twenty-four years and he
referred to the party as "an infernal ma-
chine of political iniquity." He stated that
there is no fusion schem# between the
populists and republicans, and said that
the republicans were just helping the popu-
lists in their effort to defeat the demo-
ratlc party in the state. He said that
Watson is a much better man than Sewall
and gave as his reason for so stating that
Watson was jtfamlllar with the music of
the cowbell a™ the running of the brook"
—was In sympathy with the common peo-
ple and that Sewall Is not.
After the speaker had finished Hon. R.
11. Weyman, formerly a strong populisi
leader, rose to his feet and made a telling
speech in defense of those who had circu-
lated the literature In regard to Mr. Allen,
and stated that the populists ought to
look into such matters and be careful who
they supported for high positions of public
trust.

Sound Money Addresses.
Belton, Bell Co., Tex., Oct. 28.—Hons. W
Flanagan and C. B. Edwards addressed
large audience at the court house last night
Both gentlemen were given the best of at
tention. Both of them eonpllmented Clev
land and Carlisle for their honesty and abll
it v. and when they did so the audience n
sponded with enthusiastic cheering. Th*
exposed the free silver fallacy and strongly
advocated sound money. They contended
that the ejection of McKlnley and Hoba
was now a certainty. It was only a que
tion as to how large a majority they would
get. Flanagan predicted that McKlnley
would carry Pennsylvania by -400,000 and
New York by 8w.0u0 majority. Flanaga
said he was not under the control of any
plenary committee and would vote as he
pleased. However, he advised his audience

Yandervoort on the Situation.
Austin, Tex., Oct. 27.—Paul Vandervoort
of Nebraska spent the day In the city and
made a speech at the court house to-night.
Asked this afternoon if it was a fact that
Colonel Hogg declined to meet him in de-
bate at Waco last night, he said it was.
He stated, however, that when first ap-
proached on the subject. Colonel Hogg ap-
peared willing to meet him. but that for
some reason the Hogg committee over
there declined.
In response to a query as to the outlook
in regard to the presidential situation,
Vanderve>ort said: "I think there is no
doubt but what McKinley will be elected.
Blanton Duncan of Kentucky, who has a
ranch in California, has been doing some
figuring, and he writes me McKinley will
have 307 votes in the electoral college. Dun-
can has always taken much Interest in
presidential elections and has had consid-
erable experience in figuring out the situa-
tion. Hence l have a great deal of con-
fidence. in his prognostications."
"Will your state go for Bryan?"
"Notwithstanding Nebraska is Bryan's
own state, it is exceedingly doubtful, and it
would not surprise me if It went for Mc-
Klnley."
"How about Kentucky and Illinois?"
"I don't think there is any possible
chance for either of these states to bYe se-
cured by Bryan. I think they will go
largely for McKinley, and that he will be
elected with votes to spare."
Walton at Lulinu.
Luling, Tex., Oct. 28.—Major Buck Wal-
ton spoke here this evening for over two
hours to a large and attentive audience. He
made a strictly free silver speech, urging
all democrats and populists to lay aside
prejudice and vote for Bryan. He claimed
that the democrats stole the populists' plat
form at Chicago and he made a seat hi*!
arraignment of the Texas fusion populists.
His remarks were repeatedly cheered and
evidently met the approval of a majority of
his hearers.
At night Hon. A. W. Calhoun of Bonham

support of the people. The gold men turned

escorted to the city hall, where he began
his speech at 11.30 and spoke for two hours
and a half. He denieel that the present
state administration had been either ex-
travagant or profligate. He said Culberson
could not be extravagant and pay off the
deficit left over from his (Hogg's) adminis-
tration and run the state government on a
20 cent ad valorem tax. He made his usual
free silver argument and paid the usual
compliments to the Chicago platform and
Its nominees.

New York. Oct. 28.—Immigration Com-
missioner Senner has received from the
treasury department a reply to a com-
munication he had written regarding the.
disposal of a number of Armenian reiug es
now on Ellis island. It was as follows:
"The department approves your action in
the matter as reported in your letter of the
23d instant, and the future course indi-
cated therein. Your recommendations as
to acceptance of bonds will be considered
in connection with the paper received."
The telegram was signed by \V. E. Curtis,
grants they must provide proper bonds so
as to secure the country before landing
against their being supported by the fed-
eral authorities. There are 274 Armenians
left on Ellis island, t> having been released
yesterdav.
The president of the Massachusetts board
of the W. C. T. I*, has promised bonds for
P.O. and Commissioner Senner expects that
the Salvation army will secure bonds for

but that is all If he
can keep his health,
he will go on to suc-

of that, and yet his
health is the very thing he neglects more
than anything else. His health is the rope
by which he climbs to success. It be-
hooves him to keep the rope in good con*
dition, and not to neglect broken strands.
When the rope of health breaks even a
little bit, it should be mended at once. It
is easier to keep health than it is to regain
it. When a man feels himself running
down, when he realizes a loss of vitality
and energy, he must call a halt. He is on
a down grade. The strands of his rope
are parting rapidly.

Belton, Bell Co.. Tex., Oct. 28.—Dr. Thom-
as A. Pope, republican candidate for con-
gress from this district, was in the city for
a few hours yesterday. In conversation
with The News correspondent he expressed
the utmost confidence in his election. He
says his friends throughout the district are
into a cancer of
the most malig-
nant type. The
best physicians
in New York treated her, and fin-
ally declared her case hopeless.
As a last resort, S. S. S. was given,
and an immediate Improvement re-
sulted; a few bot-
tles cured her
completely, and
no sign of t he dis-
ease has return-
ed for ten years.
